The_Dinosaur This was the greatest sketch comedy show in Australian history. I have the DVD's (the ones that have been released anyway) and I can watch them many times over and still find them funny.The key to the success of this show was it's great characters like the unforgettable Milo Kerrigan, a former boxer, who became the World heavyweight champion by default and is a Australian icon (played by the excellent Shaun Micaliff!) but is impossible to understand for us because of damaged vocal chords, but for the other characters on the show can understand him. Another great character was Peter (pronounced Poiter) a stereotypical Australian bogan who was a presenter on channel 31 community television (Played by a young Eric Bana).But this show had excellent sketches as well as running jokes which made the classic characters which people watched to see, but unlike it's successor 'Totally Full Frontal' it didn't need to rely on it's running jokes.The show also did excellent parodies on Australian celebrities and politicians, one of which was John Walker's parody of Australian Prime minister John Howard (played by John Walker). Shaun Micaliff also did a parody on Fabio 'The most beautiful man in the cosmos'.This show was actually the successor to 'Fast Forward' but it kept the same format but the cast was nearly entirely new. Fast Forward was a excellent series but Full Frontal was far better.This show was great and most Australians would love it.

chris89 Full Frontal's most effective accomplishment is establishing the camera's voyeuristic nature. The camera portrays some imagery abstractly, mainly by shooting some scenes out of focus and/or on grainy film, bringing itself to the attention of the viewer. Often, the camera also tracks back to reveal a "bigger picture", reestablishing its actors as the same subjects of a film within the film. Acting in this manner in several scenes (yet inconsistently throughout the film), the camera reveals several films within the film and aims at tricking viewers and, ultimately, at showing its ability to force viewers to shift their perspective between fictional representations of truths (the initially perceived film) and the staging of fictional representations of truths (the film within the film). What ultimately results from the camera's overall split and unreliable "recording and reporting patterns" is an uncertainty over the narrative validity of a film whose narrator (the camera) hides the true identity of its players and exploits the irresoluteness of their games. In this sense, the viewer may argue that the camera itself seems to suffer from the same identity crisis as its subjects: a crisis that fails to transmit a clear picture of its narrative and visual identity.Chris

Leviathan_ Initially starting off as an extension of the program 'Fast Forward' with the title 'Fast Forward's Full Frontal', within a year the show had totally replaced it's great but slowly aging predecessor to become one of the great comedy shows on Australian television. With the simplified title 'Full Frontal', every Thursday night was a guranteed blast.It made a great start back in 1993 but the show really began to hit its stride around 1995. By this time the cast had settled down into well-developed roles and skits such as Australian National Nightly Network News, A Current Affair (featuring Eric Bana as Ray Martin), David McGahon's World and skits involving a former boxer named Milo Kerrigan (both played by Shaun Micallef) amongst others, whilst at the same time keeping ideas fresh and original.Unfortunately nothing lasts forever and during the 1996 season things started to go downhill. Some of the skits were beginning to show their age and this was beginning to be a bit of a drag on the laughs. The producers seemed to be aware of this as well judging by the alterations they made, most notably with Shaun Micallef in the phasing out of his Milo Kerrigan character in favour of Nobby Doldrums, as well as finding alternate uses for his David McGahon character (such as the Roger Explosion series). Despite this however the alterations didn't really push far enough.By 1997 'Full Frontal' was really starting to nosedive. Not only were the skits really starting to scrape for laughs, but the disappearance of some key cast members certainly didn't help matters. The new cast members that were recruited honestly weren't that good and further hurt the show. Despite continued attempts to keep the show fresh the ratings were falling and at the end of 1997 the show was cancelled.All in all, a great show but judging from the way it ended up it was probably pushed for a year or 2 too long.

Overlord-4 Although this show is full of people with mental illnesses, it's still funny, but who found these people. One part that's not funny is when they copy other shows and make it more funny, I wouldn't like myself being imitated and making fun of me by these mentally gifted people, they're totally out of control. I only liked some episodes.
